Check seat bundles and time-tracking plans

Personal is free for one or two people and includes unlimited projects. The examples below use paid seats for 11 colleagues.

Paid subscriptions start at two seats. Asana sells seats one at a time from two through five users, then in bundles of five up to 30, ten up to 100, 25 up to 500, and 50 above 500. Paid plans list unlimited free guests. Check who qualifies as a guest in your organization before counting seats.

Native time tracking starts with Advanced. Starter supports time-tracking integrations.

Timesheets, user rates, and project budgets need the Timesheets & Budgets add-on. Its price has not been verified here.

Worked buying scenarios

Amounts below are calculated base costs or monthly equivalents, not checkout quotes.

Examples exclude applicable taxes, card conversion charges and fees, optional products, and special discounts. Confirm the price and payment term in your vendor quote.

11 colleagues needing project coordination. This example uses paid seats for all 11 colleagues and does not require native time tracking. Round 11 people to 15 paid seats. 15 × $10.99 = $164.85 monthly equivalent. $164.85 × 12 = $1,978.20 annual base commitment.

11 colleagues needing native time tracking. This example needs Advanced for native time tracking. It excludes the Timesheets & Budgets add-on. Round 11 people to 15 paid seats. 15 × $24.99 = $374.85 monthly equivalent. $374.85 × 12 = $4,498.20 annual base commitment.

Before you choose

  • Count the paid seats your team needs after allowing for Asana's seat bundles and guest eligibility.
  • Choose Advanced or above if native time tracking is required.
  • Get a separate price for Timesheets & Budgets if you need timesheets, user rates, or project budgets.

Where Trakkar fits

Trakkar Premium includes time tracking, attendance, leave, and GST invoicing. Every user gets every module, with no tiers or add-ons. The India list-price equivalent is ₹120 per user per month + GST. Payment is prepaid for six months at 5% off or 12 months at 10% off. There is no monthly billing or auto-renewing subscription. For ten users, you pay ₹6,840 + GST upfront for six months, or ₹12,960 + GST for 12 months. There is no minimum seat count. The 14-day trial needs no card, and Trakkar is used by 100+ teams. These rupee totals are shown separately from the competitor's dollar prices. No currency conversion or savings percentage is used.

Asana Advanced may suit teams that rely on portfolios, goals, and resource management. If attendance, leave, and GST invoicing are also on your list, test those workflows in Trakkar before deciding.

Detailed comparison by topic

One platform instead of a stack

Trakkar logo

Built for Indian billing: client GSTIN on invoices, the tax rate you pick, invoice numbers that restart each Indian financial year, TDS recorded at payment, India holiday presets, and your own custom holidays.

Asana logo

Asana covers one slice of the workflow. Trakkar bundles time tracking with screenshots, projects, attendance and leave, invoicing, and a client portal in a single per-user price. GST invoices and quotations are created in Trakkar too, so there is no separate invoicing tool to buy.

Feature depth & tool consolidation

Trakkar logo

One dashboard replaces a time tracker, attendance system, leave manager, invoicing tool, and client portal. Tasks run on a Kanban board, where you drag cards between your own status columns, and a timeline (Gantt-style) view shows tasks by project. Each project can have its own workflow, with your own statuses and the moves you allow between them, plus ready-made HR automations. The async daily standup fills itself in from yesterday's tasks and time. For people changes, there are onboarding and offboarding checklists, and when someone leaves, their work is handed over to a colleague.

Asana logo

Asana helps teams organize work with tasks, projects, timelines, and portfolios. It is popular with marketing, operations, and cross-functional teams. Teams using Asana often maintain a separate stack for billing and HR.
